And then I exploded out of my jeans…

Oh yes, Monday morning was a first for me. When I was getting ready for work in the morning, watching the weather report, I saw it was HOLY MOTHER OF GOD COLD outside. I think it was like 8 degrees out. Major suckitude. Anywho, since it’s been so cold the last few weeks I’ve taken to wearing leggings under my jeans for a little extra warmth. This morning was like no other, and I was doing the shimmy shake dance to get my legginged lower half into the jeans comfortably. Well, mid plié all you heard was RRRRRRIIIIIPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!! It was so loud that Dave peaked out of the bathroom to see what the hell was going on. Granted, I was only in the living room, cause that’s where I chose to put on my pants this morning, but that’s besides the point. Ladies and gents, I done busted out my pants.

Exhibit A

As you can see, I ripped a hole clean from crotch to mid thigh. Awesome. Here’s a closer examination for you. A side shot, if you will.

Exhibit B

Seriously, I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Mainly I just laughed, because I realized that these were not my super stretchy GAP Born to Fit jeans that allow for legging space underneath, but were an older pair of American Eagle jeans that definitely were not of the stretchy, jegging variety. But wow, what a hole! (TWSS!) I never knew that I possessed such power in my thighs!

Lesson learned – don’t try to squeeze yourself into a pair of skinny jeans with leggings underneath unless they’re super elasticized? Maybe it’s time to invest in some Pajama Jeans…

I'm not sure how long ago you bought those from American Eagle, but the last time I checked they have a lifetime warranty on their jeans so you might be able to bring them back and swap for a new pair for free!

I actually just ripped a pair of American Eagle jeans this fall. At my mother's urges, I brought them to the store. They exchanged them no problem, and I didn't even have a reciept. They were about a year old. So definitely try and bring them back!

Ahh no. AE does not have a life time deal. Because i work there i know this recently a lot of people have started coming in saying and asking about this deal. But ahh no. its not true. So I m not sure where this came from but people need to ask corporate if you want to know the real truth!
